Bella Glow Skin

What 4 Months of Consistency Can Do
This is a real Bella Glow acne client — and these results didn’t happen overnight.

My Face Reality Acne Bootcamp is a personalized program designed to get to know your acne and create a plan for your skin.

Your first 90-minute appointment ($125) includes an in-depth acne consultation, skin analysis, customized home-care plan + your first treatment.

Then we meet every 2 weeks ($85) for acne treatments, appropriate peels, extractions, progress checks and adjustments to your home care.
No quick fixes. Consistency + the right plan = progress. ✨

Your skin is not a trend. 📢
That viral serum? That “holy grail” product?
The moisturizer an influencer says everyone needs?

Here’s the problem: they don’t know your skin.
They haven’t analyzed your skin, assessed your barrier, looked at your congestion, dehydration, sensitivity or acne patterns—or considered how that new product will interact with everything else you’re already using.

As licensed estheticians, we’re trained to study the skin, perform skin analysis, understand ingredients and help you choose products based on your actual skin—not someone else’s.
And sometimes what your skin needs isn’t another product at all. Sometimes it needs less.

So before you spend another $50 because TikTok told you that you need it…
Ask your esthetician. 🤎

Where relaxation meets results.

✨ Never had a facial before? That’s okay!
A lot of my first-time clients come in not really knowing what their skin needs or even what they should book. You don’t have to have it figured out before you come see me.
We’ll talk about what’s bothering you, what you’re currently using at home, and what you’d like to work on. Then I’ll take a look at your skin and customize your treatment from there.
And please bring your skincare products if you want! I’m happy to go through what you’re using and help you figure out what’s working and what may not be.

That’s exactly why I created my Skin Reset for new clients.

✨ Where relaxation meets results.

I found this picture today and it made me emotional. ❤️
This picture was taken over 20 years ago, when I was in my early 30s, sitting in a treatment room with my little nephew.

When I first became an esthetician, this industry looked very different. And my journey hasn't been a perfectly straight line. I've been in and out of esthetics over the years, but for the past six years, I've been fully committed to the career I chose so long ago.
Today, I have my own business.

And when people see Bella Glow, they see the treatment room, the facials, the skincare, the pretty posts, and hopefully a business that's growing.
What they don't see are the years behind it.

They don't see the slow weeks. The cancellations. The money invested. The continuing education. The second-guessing. The late nights trying to figure out marketing. The days you wonder whether you're doing enough. Or the courage it takes to keep showing up when you're building something on your own.

Small business ownership has humbled me in ways I never expected.

But looking at this younger version of myself reminds me how far I've come.

At 54, I'm still learning. Still growing. Still building. And I'm not finished yet. ❤️

If you're supporting Bella Glow in any way—booking with me, referring someone, sharing a post, leaving a review, or simply cheering me on—thank you. It means more to this small-business owner than you probably realize.
Here's to the next chapter. ❤️

🍂 Things to Know Before Getting a Chemical Peel
Chemical peel season is here, but before you book one, here’s something I want you to know:
A good chemical peel does NOT have to leave you visibly peeling to be effective.

Depending on the peel selected, your skin concerns, and the depth of treatment, you may experience anything from little to no visible flaking to several days of dryness and peeling.
Chemical peels can be customized to address:
✨ Uneven tone & pigmentation
✨ Fine lines & sun damage
✨ Acne & congestion
✨ Rough or uneven texture
✨ Dullness & loss of radiance
And stronger isn’t always better. The goal is to choose the appropriate peel for your skin—not simply the one that makes you peel the most.

Some clients want beautiful resurfacing with minimal downtime. Others are ready for something more corrective. Both can have a place in a professional skincare plan.

Not sure which peel is right for you? I offer FREE consultations. We can talk about your skin concerns, goals and how much downtime you’re comfortable with, and I’ll help you determine the best option.
Or, if you’re ready for a treatment but don’t know where to start, book my Skin Reset and we’ll take it from there.
